Central location, free WIFI, good place to start looking around on foot and find another central place for probably a slightly higher price and stay there for several days. More

The place is very accessible to metro station, near the major palaces and museum. I like the place because it's neat and clean. The staff are very friendly like Maria and David Moses. During my stay, the communal wash room/toilet is under construction in the second floor, so i used the 3rd floor - and it's clean and neat. Just... More

th Hostal stayed stuck in time. My last stay was 5 years ago and in between I had sent a friend to stay. Well the walls were smelly, the rooms were musty, the towels were thinner and there was horryble ,mildew in the bathroom tile. The location is still fantastic and if youre looking for a bargain under $30.00 then... More

No ventilation, can't open the window to the alley because it smells like rotten fish. Room is dark and gloomy. Staff is friendly and helpful. Room is otherwise clean. Good location, but I would never suggest anyone stay here. More

Hostal is in a great location and the staff was very friendly, however the venue needs some serious work. The shared bathroom had some mold and was falling apart. Laminate floor in the lobby was coming off and people were constantly tripping there. Towels are very old and washed out. No soap is provided in private bathrooms. Overall, it needs... More

Rooms may be ugly upon first look, but they are kept clean, and for someone trying to save money are very good for the price - 36 euros for a room with shared bathroom, 50 euros for private bathroom. The service is great, they helped us find a hostal for when we left Madrid, and they keep the bathrooms very... More

I was worried about this place before I went given the many negative reviews but was pleasantly surprised. Yes the lack of soap in the bathroom of my room was annoying, but then it's cheap and easy to buy some of your own anyway. Sure the rooms aren't fancy, but for this price in such an ideal location what can... More

Don’t’s stay in Room 324. Where to start on this place. There is a reason on their web site they don’t show the rooms. The room where my mom and I stayed in smelled terribly of mold. The lighting was bad, and locks were questionable. O.K. the smell was not that bad once your olfactory sensors became accustomed to the... More

Booked Hostal Villar through their own website and our original enquiry was returned same day offering us availability and price. We stayed for 5 nights and were very impressed with the place.
